This solutions seems a bit too complicated. I really was hoping to get responses from people who had some much simpler solutions to this problem. I will try your suggestions very soon. I do not mind using work arounds to solve problems like inaccessible music downloading sites. I just wish that there were some more detailed tutorials available to enable blind people to take advantage of all of the music that is available on the web. Fairly soon, we will not be able to purchase music from a local cd store because these stores are closing. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It is currently named Torrent Harvester due to the fact that most of the Engines are Torrent Engines, however Torrent Harvester is not limited to searching for Torrents and can search for any type of file given the proper Engine file. Torrent Harvester was developed with flexibility in mind. There is nothing hard-coded for a particular web-page, all Engine information is stored in user-modifiable XML files or through the included Engine Designer. This makes it possible for users to add Engines for their own favorite Torrent sites, or indeed any sites which list information. ok now you have a program to find the torrents you need a torrent program. the best one as far as I have been able to determent for jaws is µTorrent it can be had at http://www.utorrent.com/ this is the program that deals with the downloading uploading and seeding. I do hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rodney Neely Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2006 2:09 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Downloading Music I am an avid music collector. I have many albums and cds, but I want to begin downloading music using my pc. I have had an unpleasant experience trying to subscribe to one of those unlimited downloads sites because Jaws for Windows would not work with this web site because there was a great deal of video content on the web site. Of course, I could not see this until I had subscribed to the unlimited web site and paid $47.00 just to be frustrated. I would like to know about web sites that work well with JFW that will enable me to download music, especially those sites that will enable me to download lots of music and pay a yearly subscription fee. I am also interested about learning about peer to peer file sharing web sites that work well with JFW and sites that work well with JFW that enable users to download sons on a pay for song basis. I have visited the JFWLite web site. I see all of the scripts for many music file sharing programs, but I do not know which file sharing programs work with the current versions of specific music downloading and file sharing web sites. Any assistance which anyone can provide with this question would be greatly appreciated. Rodney Neely blindlion@xxxxxxxxxxx
